“…However, both of these telemedicine framework are lack of the auto alarm feature to alert the user if any abnormal reading or measurement is acquired. A patient monitoring system based on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is developed which aimed for the chronic heart failure patients to acquire their vital signs including non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), ECG, SpO2, and weight on daily basis at home [3]. It transmits the information to the Hospital Information System (HIS) automatically thus allow the physicians to monitor their patients in remoteness under control and carry out suitable medical action whenever necessary.…”

“…In ad dition to that, numbers of death in remote area caused by coronary artery diseases are also inclined, where 91% of the patient s whose age more than 50 years old die before getting to the hospital. 15 million people in Europe and over 5 million people in t he U.S affected by chronic heart failure (CHF), one of the most pertinent diseases in developing countries where it results in 2% of the whole health care spending and predicted to double in 2030 [3]. While in China, 4.2 million people of its population suffered from heart failure, 1 million people in Japan and around 1.3 to 4.6 million people in India also experiencing the same disease [7].…”

With the rapid evolution and fast growth of health care technology since the new millennium, it not only results in longer life span in worldwide but also increases complicated and critical health state at the same time. Due to the rising of world population aging, it escalates the number of older adults compared to the whole population. According to the United Nations reports, this ratio is expected to rise twofold between 2007 and 2050, which will reach two billions by 2050 [1]. As aging issues becomes one of the serious concerns, the demand of healthcare treatment at hospital as well as at home increase cautiously. However, the main disadvantages of long term and full-time health care need aid of workforce and financial initiatives [2]. In addition to that, the exacerbated health problem and clinical state are normally the result of vital signs measurement variation [3]. As a result, continuous and reliable vital signs monitoring primarily to critical patie nts become extremely crucial. Unfortunately, it is a very tedious yet costly journey to stay at the hospital for the purpose of post medical treatment and

“…In [14] a solution which integrates different devices via Bluetooth is described, providing a solution for the monitoring of patients who suffer Chronic Heart Failure (CHF). Another solution for recording different signals is to integrate different sensors in one device, which would make it more comfortable for the user.…”

This paper presents the results of using a commercial pulsimeter as an electrocardiogram (ECG) for wireless detection of cardiac alterations and stress levels for home control. For these purposes, signal processing techniques (Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and J48) have been used, respectively. The designed algorithm analyses the ECG signal and is able to detect the heart rate (99.42%), arrhythmia (93.48%) and extrasystoles (99.29%). The detection of stress level is complemented with Skin Conductance Response (SCR), whose success is 94.02%. The heart rate variability does not show added value to the stress detection in this case. With this pulsimeter, it is possible to prevent and detect anomalies for a non-intrusive way associated to a telemedicine system. It is also possible to use it during physical activity due to the fact the CWT minimizes the motion artifacts.

Abstract:The paper presents a fully-integrated and universal DC/DC converter to minimize cost and size of power supply systems in wireless nodes for Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. The proposed converter avoids the use of inductors and is made by a cascade of switching capacitor stages, implementing both step-down and step-up converting ratios, which regulate input sources from 1 V to 60 V to a voltage of about 4 V. Multiple linear regulators are placed at the end of the cascade to provide multiple and stable output voltages for loads such as memories, sensors, processors, wireless transceivers. The multi-output power converter has been integrated in a Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) 180 nm technology. As case study, the generation of 3 output voltages has been considered (3 V, 2.7 V, and 1.65 V with load current requirements of 0.3 A, 0.3 A, and 0.12 A, respectively). Thanks to the adoption of a high switching frequency, up to 5 MHz, the only needed passive components are flying capacitors, whose size is below 10 nF, and buffer capacitors, whose size is below 100 nF. These capacitors can be integrated on top of the chip die, creating a 3D structure. This way, the size of the power management unit for IoT and CPS nodes is limited at 18 mm 2 . The proposed converter can also be used with changing input power sources, like power harvesting systems and/or very disturbed power supplies.
